Love these sandals for my 16mo daughter! Just enough protection for her feet when she has to wear shoes. All the straps are velcro and seem to be holding up well. My daughter hates wearing shoes in the car and can usually manage to take these off which isn't a big deal to me but is something to keep in mind.

The Velcro strap behind the ankle is easy enough for my toddler to put shoes on independently. The width is perfect!

Our boy has side feet, coupled with needing to wear foot/ankle braces. The velcro straps were had enough play that these worked for him, which was great! And they look great! When we first got them, my husband opened the package and was like "buckles? on a toddler? are you crazy?" but after seeing they were velcro, he loved them!

Sandals can be tricky for my young toddler who is still unsure on her feet. She needs something sturdy but also breathable on these hot summer days. These fit the bill! The wide is great for her little feet, and the adjustable straps make sure I can get the perfect fit. Love them.

These are great sandals for my toddler. Very comfortable and he wears them without complaint. Only negatives are that they stain his feet when wet and if he has his legs crossed on a hooked rug, the hook/loop tabs grab the rug.

I've now purchased 5 pairs of these. We absolutely love them. My oldest got them at 3 and they've been great for us. They are foot shaped and flexible for small feet, but they hold up really well for daily wear. They are easy to keep clean and they go with everything. I've always bought the brown (I have 2 girls) because if the versatility. We fulltime RV and spend most of our time outdoors so they get a lot of rugged use. I will continue to stick with bare steps as long as they make them. It's so hard to find a minimal shoe for toddlers that's not super awkward looking or flat out ugly, and also will hold up to daily wear. I started my eldest at age 3 in a 7 and we have every whole size up to 10. She's now 4 and has moved up to 8. My 2 year old started in a 6 and I will be able to hand them down as she grows since they are so well made.

Got them for my 1.5 year old. The Velcro on each strap is very convenient! Very good quality. The silver pair goes well with fancier outfits and is sturdy enough to withstand all kinds of play. Love the flexibility and room for growing feet.

I bought these sandals for my 2 year old grandson, who typically doesn't like to wear footwear. These sandals fit like a glove and truly follow the shape of the foot to make walking and running a breeze. I would highly recommend these sandals and will purchase them again for next summer!

I bought these shoes for my daughter. We have such a hard time finding shoes that fit her correctly and these fit amazing. I then got a pair for my son and he loves them too! They fit perfectly by the measurement guide and are very comfortable.

This sandal is one of the first we've tried for our son. They seemed comfortable right from the start. He wore them a full day with no real irritation, etc and I love the way they look. Very happy with this purchase so I also ordered another pair in the next size up for when he grows out of the first pair. < 3

I purchased these for my 3 yr old and she loves them; easy-on, easy-off, easily-adjustable. My 5 yr old is super jealous! I wish Merrell would make more sizes.

I bought these sandals for my daughter in the brown color because I like how it looks more neutral and natural, even though they are meant for boys. The shoes had soft rubber soles, and a nice wide toe box for little toes to move. The bottom had very good traction, so they can be used for walking, running, and even hiking. The straps were strong and the velcro large so it doesn't come undone easily and can be adjusted to the foot size... Which I like.The only issue I ran into was that the shoes were too big, so I exchanged them for a smaller size. Will most likely buy them again next year but I have to see how they hold up after this summer is over. However, I am pretty confident that they will hold up just fine judging by the quality.

My 3 year old has a wide thick feet. We have the hardest time finding shoes that fit his chubby feet comfortably, especially sandals. He can't get his foot into most flip-flop type sandals. We loved these bc they have velcro straps on all 3 straps, and the footbed are wide enough for his feet to still have a bit of wiggle room! Hoorah! We got his normal 8.5 size and they were too small, so we sized up to a 9 and still too small as his toes were about to overhang from the front. I would say these may run at least a 1/2 size small. They are soft and have great grip. Look forward to seeing our little boy where these out to the beach soon!

I bought these in 3 different sizes to last my son as his feet grow. They are perfect for California spring and summertime and great for wide feet! The price was definitely right and I could not pass them up!

I really like the adjustability of the three straps. You get the look of a buckle, but the convenience of velcro. Also, I really like the more flexible sole with this shoe.

This is a nice looking pair of sandals that my 3 year-old son can wear with just about anything. They seem comfortable for him to wear and walk in. I plan to take these shoes on our trip to Jamaica.

This is the perfect summer shoe for my 15 month old son. They are easy to put on, are made with quality material, and he loves walking in them. I was looking for a minimalist style shoe with a zero drop and lots of room for his developing feet! I love these! Will buy him more as he grows.
